Lezyne V 11 multi-tool


SO GOOD
The V 11 is the slimmest and lightest tool on test, at only 107g. It comes in a neat case and has a solid, well-made feel despite its size. Our experience with Lezyne tools tells us they’ll withstand years of abuse too.

The chain tool is very effective and easy to use. The chrome vanadium tool bits include Allen keys from 2mm to 8mm,T25 and T30 Torx keys, and a flat-head screwdriver.

NO GOOD
The 2mm and 2.5mm Allen keys are right-angled rather than straight, which can make them extremely fiddly to use. The V 11 is the priciest offering here despite having the fewest tools.

Price 42$

Gusset Magnum stem

SO GOOD Gusset’s 50mm stem is nicely CNC machined from 7075 alloy and the faceplate and internal steerer clamp are available in a range of five anodised colours to complement the black body. The hidden steerer clamp keeps sharp edges to a minimum and removes stress from the body of the stem. Out on the bike, the stem proved flex free and bombproof.
